I am not nearly as concerned about my lifespan as my health span. I'd rather live 10 years less but be very capable physically and mentally than to linger an extra 10 years while physically and mentally impaired. I'm not much for gimmicks and hacks that address one thing and are promoted as cure alls. I don't believe in it. So with all that said, in this episode we are talking about muscle. My expert on the topic is Dr Gabrielle Lyon. I've known of Gabrielle for a long, long time through Functional Medicine circles. Her focus and expertise is Muscle-Centric Medicine. I am now a believer that a certain amount of muscle mass is critical for healthy aging. Not just for your physical capabilities, but also your mental abilities. I'm convinced all aspects of our bodies are intrinsically connected and the muscle in your bicep doesn't just help you lift things well, that muscle works to fortify and fuel your entire body, brain included. Since this recording, I'd say Gabrielle's notoriety has exploded. She has become the #1 evangelist, spokesperson, and recognized expert for the benefits of muscle and a primary leader in health and wellness overall. That said, I sometimes struggle with possibly a bit too much focus being given to muscle alone, and how much. I still enjoy running and riding and hiking and walking and endurance activities. But, I maintain a consistent, almost daily routine of push ups, pull ups, and dips, and will probably add more resistance activities over time. But I think you will gain valuable info from this discussion on aspects of muscle that you can address right away. I reference some of Gabrielle's book, Forever Strong: A New, Science-Based Strategy for Aging Well, and you can find her podcast at The Dr Gabrielle Lyon Show.

When has healthcare advice become so complicated? And how should we be thinking about long-term wellness? Zeke Emanuel is an oncologist and bioethnicist whose latest book, Eat Your Ice Cream, might sound paradoxical against modern health trends and wellness noise.

Sleep isn't just something that happens—it's a skill that can be developed. In this episode of The Aging Well Podcast, Dr. Jeff Armstrong welcomes neurologist and sleep specialist Dr. Chris Winter to explore why consistency may matter more than simply getting eight hours of sleep. From the growing phenomenon of "revenge bedtime procrastination" to the science of circadian rhythms, recovery, and healthy aging, Dr. Winter explains how intentional daily habits can improve sleep, cognitive function, physical performance, and long-term health. The conversation also examines where sleep supplements fit—and where they don't—in building a sustainable sleep routine.Learn more at https://www.natrol.com/Find Dr. Winter:on YouTube @SleepUnpluggedPodcaston Instagram @drchriswinterPlease, support The Aging Well Podcast by hitting the ‘like' button, subscribing/following the podcast, sharing with a friend, and….Tip Jar!

We're revisiting one of our favorite Body Pod conversations as part of our Best of the Body Pod series. Dr. Courtney Conley makes the case that most women's balance, hip, and knee issues actually start at the feet, not the joint that hurts. Her breakdown of why weak feet and years of restrictive footwear throw off everything up the chain, from pelvic stability to how your brain reads the ground under you, is worth another listen.Many women deal with chronic pain, plantar fasciitis, poor squat mechanics, and a higher fall risk without ever realizing their feet are the root cause.We break down how modern footwear, weak feet, loss of sensory input, and overreliance on orthotics can disrupt movement patterns, pelvic stability, hormone regulation, and nervous system function. Dr. Conley explains the powerful connection between the feet, pelvis, core, and brain, and why rebuilding foot strength is essential for aging well, preventing injuries, and maintaining confidence in movement.This conversation delivers practical, realistic strategies for improving foot strength and mobility, including footwear choices, toe strength exercises, calf training, balance work, and safe transitions away from orthotics. Whether you're dealing with foot pain, instability, or want to build a stronger body from the ground up, this episode offers actionable insights to help women move better and stay resilient for decades.Hailey Happens Fitness Membership is the only fitness investment that grows with you!

What does it actually mean to age well? Sara sits down with Dr. Peter Grinspoon, author of Aging Well with Cannabis, to talk about chronic pain, sleep, stigma, safer consumption, and why quality of life matters just as much as longevity. [Ep 218]

For years, The Aging Well Podcast has emphasized six evidence-based pillars of healthy aging: exercise and physical activity, maintaining a healthy body composition, a healthy diet, not smoking, sleep hygiene, and social connectedness. Together, these behaviors are strongly associated with longer life, reduced disease risk, and improved quality of life.But is there a missing pillar?In this episode, Dr. Jeff Armstrong and co-host Corbin Bruton explore the case for adding Purpose as a seventh pillar of aging well. Drawing upon the SPIES Model of well-centered fitness, the work of Pierre Teilhard de Chardin, Abraham Maslow's later theories of self-transcendence, and Scott Barry Kaufman's book Transcend, they examine whether healthy aging is about more than preserving function and avoiding disease.The conversation explores aging as a process of transformation rather than decline, the role of Purpose in physical and psychological health, the possibility of lifelong growth in consciousness, and the idea that human flourishing may involve moving toward an ever-receding horizon of wholeness. Together, Jeff and Corbin consider whether Purpose is not merely an outcome of aging well, but an essential ingredient in the process itself.Please, support The Aging Well Podcast by hitting the ‘like' button, subscribing/following the podcast, sharing with a friend, and….Tip Jar!

What if the greatest obstacle to aging well isn't physical decline, but the way we perceive ourselves and the world around us? In this episode, Dr. Jeff Armstrong welcomes Pratiqk Jaani, founder of the Dhrasti Method and author of Dhrasti!The Perception, for a conversation about perception, conditioning, consciousness, and the pursuit of lasting wholeness. Drawing from his own journey through professional success, personal dissatisfaction, and a life-changing health crisis, Pratiqk explains how cultivating the "observer self" can help us move beyond emotional reactivity and live with greater joy, resilience, and purpose. Together, they explore how these ideas intersect with transformative aging, the SPIES model, and the lifelong process of becoming well-centered.Learn more at https://www.pratiqkjaani.com/Please, support The Aging Well Podcast by hitting the ‘like' button, subscribing/following the podcast, sharing with a friend, and….Tip Jar!

BrainStorm wants to hear from you! Send us a text.Endocrinologist and longevity expert Dr. Florence Comite joins Meryl Comer to challenge conventional wisdom about aging, hormones, and brain health. Drawing on decades of clinical experience and her new book Invincible, Dr. Comite explains why the fear around hormone therapy is based on outdated, flawed research. She believes testosterone, progesterone, quality sleep, and resistance training can meaningfully improve brain function at any age, even into your 90s. Dr. Comite also stresses that "normal range" lab results can be misleading, and that individualized, detail-oriented care outperforms one-size-fits-all evidence-based medicine. You don't want to miss this candid, detail-driven conversation about taking control of your own aging process.Support the show

For decades, psychedelics were associated primarily with youth culture, countercultural movements, and experimental exploration. Today, however, a growing number of older adults are revisiting—or discovering for the first time—the potential of psychedelics as tools for healing, personal growth, meaning-making, and emotional well-being.In this episode, Dr. Jeff Armstrong speaks with journalist and author Abbie Rosner, one of the few writers dedicated to exploring the intersection of psychedelics and aging. Her forthcoming book, Psychedelics and the Counterculture of Aging, examines how baby boomers and older adults are challenging traditional narratives of aging through intentional psychedelic use and how these experiences may influence mental health, purpose, spirituality, and quality of life in later years.Drawing from years of reporting for major publications and conversations with older adults exploring psychedelics and cannabis, Abbie discusses why interest in psychedelics is growing among older populations, what the current research suggests, and the ethical, practical, and emotional questions that accompany this emerging movement. Together, they explore whether aging can be viewed not as a period of inevitable decline, but as a season of continued growth, exploration, wisdom, and transformation.Learn more at https://www.abbierosner.com/BUY Psychedelics and the Counterculture of Aging at https://www.innertraditions.com/search/Abbie+RosnerFind help at https://healingadvocacyfund.org/ andhttps://www.spiritpharmacist.com/Please, support The Aging Well Podcast by hitting the ‘like' button, subscribing/following the podcast, sharing with a friend, and….Tip Jar!

Send us Fan MailAre you holding yourself back because of your age... without even realizing it?Growing older isn't the problem. The stories we've been told about growing older might be.In this inspiring conversation, Marqueeta Curtis-Haynes welcomes author, podcaster, and Midlife & Beyond creator Jo Blackwell for an honest discussion about self-ageism, reinvention, confidence, and why our later years may hold more possibility than we've been led to believe.In this uplifting and thought-provoking conversation, Marqueeta Curtis-Haynes welcomes author, podcaster, and Midlife & Beyond creator Jo Blackwell for a powerful discussion about self-ageism, reinvention, confidence, and embracing the incredible opportunities that come with growing older.After losing herself during perimenopause and navigating anxiety, depression, and major life changes, Jo discovered that midlife wasn't the end of her story—it was the beginning of an entirely new chapter. Today, she's helping women around the world challenge outdated beliefs about aging and embrace a future filled with purpose, possibility, and joy.Together, Marqueeta and Jo discuss:• What self-ageism is, and how it quietly shapes our lives• Why so many women feel invisible after 50• The surprising "good news" about growing older• Why it's never too late to start over• The difference between reinventing yourself and becoming more of who you truly are• The importance of community, curiosity, and letting go• How changing the way we think about aging can change the way we liveIf you've ever wondered whether your best years are behind you, this conversation will leave you feeling hopeful, empowered, and ready to embrace what's next.At Ageless Glamour Girls™, we believe growing older isn't about becoming less - but about becoming more.********************** From the Desk of Jo Blackwell:I write about the stories we carry, and how they shape the way we experience midlife and growing older.  I've always been interested in stories: those that are true, those we are told, and those we tell ourselves. In ancient cultures, storytellers were entrusted with remembering and retelling the stories of the people - helping individuals and communities make sense of who they were, where they came from, and what mattered.  I still believe that role matters. Being seen and heard can be as powerful as being loved. Taking the time to truly listen to another human being is a quiet, radical act, and one that feels increasingly necessary in an emotionally disconnected world  Over my lifetime, I've spent a great deal of time unpicking my own stories in search of truth and meaning. It has been a long, sometimes painful, but ultimately deeply fulfilling process. As I've grown older, I've found myself arriving, occasionally, at a place that feels like peace.  My working life has always revolved around stories:                                                       • As a brand photographer, I helped entrepreneurs tell their stories more clearly, so they could attract clients aligned with who they really were.                                    • Through one-to-one coaching, I supported women in midlife to question the stories holding them back and to begin shaping new ones that reflected who they were becoming.                                                                                                                       • Today, I write about the culture of ageing, and in my fiction, women in midlife and beyond are very often at the heart of the story.                                                                                                                                                                                               Alongside this work, I've been married for more than four decades. We have four children, four children-in-law, and ten grandchildren. They are my greatest blessing, and together, they form the most meaningful story of my life. *********************** CONNECT WITH JO:*Book: Ageing Wonderfully Well: The Good News about Midlife and Growing Older:  https://geni.us/AgeingWonderfullyWell*Website: https://www.joblackwell.co.uk/ *YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@JoBlackwell-MidlifeAndBeyond*Substack: https://joblackwellmidlifeandbeyond.substack.com *IG:  @joblackwell_midlifeandbeyond    Support the showSupport Ageless Glamour Girls™:www.agelessglamourgirls.com        www.linkedin.com/in/marqueetacurtishaynes       https://www.youtube.com/@agelessglamourgirls      https://agelessglamourgirlsboutique.com/Instagram @agelessglamourgirlsFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/agelessglamourgirlsPrivate (AGG) FB Group: The Ageless Café: https://www.facebook.com/groups/theagelesscafeTikTok: @agelessglamourgirlshttps://www.shopltk.com/explore/AgelessGlamourGirls Podcast Producers: Ageless Glamour Girls™ and Purple Tulip Media, LLC

Leucine is often celebrated as one of the most important nutrients for healthy aging. As a key amino acid involved in muscle protein synthesis, leucine helps preserve strength, mobility, and independence — all critical factors for aging well.But emerging longevity research suggests the story may be more complicated.In this episode of The Aging Well Podcast, Dr. Jeff Armstrong and cohost Corbin Bruton explore the “double-edged sword” of leucine. While leucine supports muscle maintenance and mitochondrial energy production, it also strongly activates the mTOR pathway — a biological growth signal associated with accelerated aging and reduced lifespan in some animal studies when chronically overstimulated.So how do we reconcile these competing ideas? Is leucine helping us age better, or merely helping us age stronger? And is there a difference?Together, they unpack the complex relationship between muscle, metabolism, longevity science, mitochondrial function, exercise, and nutritional balance — exploring what it means to pursue not just longer life, but wiser aging.Article Referenced:University of Cologne.

In this episode, Dr. Jeff Armstrong is joined by Thomas Attig, one of the most influential voices in modern grief studies. An applied philosopher, educator, and internationally recognized grief counselor, Tom has spent decades helping mourners, caregivers, healthcare professionals, and counselors better understand the grieving process. He is the author of several landmark books on bereavement, including How We Grieve: Relearning the World, The Heart of Grief, Catching Your Breath in Grief, and his latest collection, Seeking Wisdom in Death's Shadows: Collected Writings on How We Grieve.Drawing on a lifetime of listening, reflection, teaching, and service, Tom challenges the common assumption that grief is simply something we endure until it fades. Instead, he describes grief as a process of "relearning the world"—learning how to live, love, and find meaning in a reality forever changed by loss.Together, Jeff and Tom explore why the death of a loved one can feel as though it has taken our breath away, how grief affects our relationship with ourselves and others, the difference between problems and mysteries, and why wisdom may be just as important as evidence in caring for those who mourn. They also discuss resilience, healing, continuing bonds with loved ones, and the lessons grief can teach us about aging well, living fully, and cherishing what matters most.Learn more at https://griefsheart.comBUY Seeking Wisdom in Death's Shadows and save using the Promo Code AUFLY310 at: https://global.oup.com/academic/product/seeking-wisdom-in-deaths-shadows-9780197776094?cc=us&lang=en&Please, support The Aging Well Podcast by hitting the ‘like' button, subscribing/following the podcast, sharing with a friend, and….Tip Jar!

Modern food culture gives us access to almost anything at any time of year. But just because we can eat strawberries in winter or ultra-processed foods every season does not mean our biology evolved for it.Building off a recent conversation with Dr. John Douillard (Episode 403) that include the benefits of seasonal eating and a previous Episode 404 on organ meats as a “multivitamin for carnivores,” Dr. Jeff Armstrong and cohost Corbin Bruton explore the forgotten wisdom of ancestral nutrition. Together, they discuss how humans historically ate according to seasonal rhythms, local environments, and periods of abundance and scarcity — and how the Standard American Diet has largely disconnected us from those natural patterns.The conversation examines how seasonal eating may influence metabolism, inflammation, gut health, circadian biology, and longevity while also exploring practical ways modern people can reconnect with more natural and nutrient-dense approaches to food.Please, support The Aging Well Podcast by hitting the ‘like' button, subscribing/following the podcast, sharing with a friend, and….Tip Jar!

In this episode of Wake Up, Look Up, Pastor Zach explores a recent article and study suggesting that aging is not simply a story of decline, but often includes measurable improvement in both cognitive and physical health. He highlights how a person's view of aging–particularly optimism–can significantly shape their experience of growing older. He then connects this insight to Scripture, showing how believers are called to flourish, bear fruit in every season of life, and steward their lives for God's glory even into old age.Have an article you'd like Pastor Zach to discuss?

Fatigue, brain fog, poor recovery, chronic inflammation, and many age-related diseases may appear unrelated on the surface — but what if they share a common biological root?In this episode of The Aging Well Podcast, Dr. Jeff Armstrong sits down with research engineer, longevity advocate, and MyVitalC founder Chris Burres to explore the role of oxidative stress, inflammation, and mitochondrial function in the aging process.Chris explains how the body's “cellular power plants” can shift from energy producers to contributors to accelerated aging, why not all antioxidants work the same, and how emerging research into cellular resilience may shape the future of healthspan and longevity. Together, they discuss fatigue, recovery, cognition, chronic disease, wellness culture, and the importance of separating promising science from hype in the rapidly growing longevity marketplace.Learn more at https://www.myvitalc.com/agingwellPlease, support The Aging Well Podcast by hitting the ‘like' button, subscribing/following the podcast, sharing with a friend, and….Tip Jar!

I'm Not Aging Well! by Pei-Lan Ku

What if aging is not a slow unraveling—but an upward movement into deeper wholeness? In this episode of The Aging Well Podcast, Dr. Jeff Armstrong and Corbin Bruton explore the idea of “aging as ascension rather than decline.” Drawing on the SPIES model (Spiritual, Physical, Intellectual, Emotional, and Social fitness), they reframe the second half of life as a period of integration, purpose, and expanding awareness.The conversation weaves together modern concepts like healthspan and joyspan with the theological and philosophical insights of thinkers like Pierre Teilhard de Chardin and C.S. Lewis. From the idea of the “Cosmic Christ” to the daily practices that cultivate resilience and meaning, this episode challenges the dominant narrative of aging and offers a vision of growth that is both grounded and transcendent.If you've ever wondered whether your later years can be your most meaningful, this episode provides both a framework and a path forward.Please, support The Aging Well Podcast by hitting the ‘like' button, subscribing/following the podcast, sharing with a friend, and….Tip Jar!

Stress is often treated as a feeling, but what if it is also a measurable biological force shaping disease, pain, inflammation, and the aging process itself? In this episode of The Aging Well Podcast, rheumatologist and Inmedix CEO Dr. Andrew Holman joins Dr Armstrong to explore the emerging science of stress biology and the autonomic nervous system.Drawing from more than 25 years in rheumatology and decades of research into autoimmune disease, Dr. Holman explains why stress may be the “missing link” in chronic illness and why understanding the body's stress response could transform how we approach treatment, recovery, and aging well. The conversation explores heart rate variability, vagal tone, inflammation, chronic pain, precision medicine, and the growing challenge of separating evidence-based health technology from wellness hype in the modern longevity marketplace.Learn more at https://inmedix.com/aboutPlease, support The Aging Well Podcast by hitting the ‘like' button, subscribing/following the podcast, sharing with a friend, and….Tip Jar!

In this episode of Aging Well with VNA, host Kersten Rettig welcomes back retired cardiologist Dr. Melissa Curry for an important and informative conversation about atrial fibrillation (AFib)—a common heart rhythm disorder affecting millions, with nearly 40% of people experiencing it at some point in their lives.Together, they break down what AFib is, why your heartbeat matters more than you might think, and how this condition can impact overall health. While AFib is not typically life-threatening, it can increase the risk of stroke and cause uncomfortable symptoms that affect quality of life. Dr. Curry shares insight into key risk factors—including age, genetics, obesity, high blood pressure, alcohol use, and sleep apnea—and discusses the latest approaches to treatment and management. Most importantly, she offers reassurance that there is hope: with early detection, proper care, and lifestyle changes, AFib can be effectively managed. Whether you're concerned about your own heart health or caring for a loved one, this episode provides practical, reassuring guidance to help you better understand AFib—and take steps toward living well.Learn more about AFib at https://www.stopafib.org/

The Anti-Hype Beauty Episode: Good Housekeeping's April Franzino on Testing, Trust, and the Aging Well Core Promise to the Listener The Not Old Better Show Good Housekeeping Good Better Best Interview Series Beauty advice has moved from the department store counter to the magazine page to the endless scroll. That shift matters, especially for adults 60+. Today, consumers are trying to make sense of sunscreens, retinol, dark spot correctors, fragrance, skin-tightening products, "anti-aging" claims, and social media recommendations that often sound more certain than the evidence allows. On this episode of The Not Old Better Show, I speak with April Franzino, Senior Beauty and Style Director at Good Housekeeping, Woman's Day, and Prevention. April brings the perspective of a journalist, editor, product tester, and consumer guide. We talk about the Good Housekeeping Beauty Awards, the role of Beauty Lab testing, why sunscreen remains central to skin care, and how readers can separate practical guidance from polished salesmanship. For me, the larger question is trust. Who has earned it? What has been tested? What should we question before spending money? Experience matters. Longevity matters. And in beauty, as in health journalism, confidence should never outrun evidence.

What if your diagnosis wasn't the beginning of the end — but the beginning of everything? Eight years ago, Bettina Gordon-Wayne was handed a breast cancer diagnosis on a beautiful spring day in Washington, D.C. She had a four-year-old at home, a healthy lifestyle, and zero warning signs. Today, she is eight years cancer-free and biologically 12 years younger than her chronological age. And she has the data to prove it. Bettina spent 30 years as an international journalist interviewing world leaders, billionaires, and global experts. She was always the one asking the questions — until life gave her a story she couldn't cover from a distance. So she turned her investigative rigor toward the science of longevity, logged thousands of hours of research, and rebuilt her health from the inside out. Her TEDx talk "Aging Well, Aging in Reverse" surpassed 100,000 views. Her book The Joy of Later Motherhood sparked a global conversation. And her program, Younger With Age, is helping high-achieving midlife women do exactly what she did — reverse their biological age with data that proves it. In this episode, Dr. Anna and Bettina cover: Why biological age matters far more than the candles on your birthday cake How Bettina conceived naturally at 43 after a year of failed attempts — and what changed The mindset shift that separates women who age slowly from women who don't Why healthy living didn't prevent cancer — and how it saved her life anyway The unsexy, free anti-aging strategy that outperforms every biohack How to become a "beauty hunter" and lower cortisol through intentional joy The two words to say to anyone who tells you your best years are behind you Memorable Quotes: We can have true agency over the way we age. — Bettina Gordon-Wayne We can truly get younger with age.— Bettina Gordon-Wayne Get out of the victimhood and become defiant.— Bettina Gordon-Wayne The goal is not just to get older. The goal is to create a life that you are excited to live. — Bettina Gordon-Wayne If anybody tells you that you're too old, too gray, that your ship has sailed, look them straight in the eye and tell them two words: Watch me.— Bettina Gordon-Wayne "Our body is the cathedral of our spirit." — Dr. Anna Cabeca "For every day God gives us, let it be as healthy, vital, and purposeful as possible." — Dr. Anna Cabeca "Health shows vitality." — Dr. Anna Cabeca "Your diagnosis is not your destiny." — Dr. Anna Cabeca "Your diagnosis is not your destiny." — Dr. Anna Cabeca "Our body is the best pharmacy in the world." — Dr. Anna Cabeca   Take Bettina's free biological age quiz at bettinagordon.com/quiz and learn more about the Younger With Age program at bettinagordon.com/program.   Key Timestamps: 00:00 — Dr. Anna opens: "Our body is the cathedral of our spirit" — why renovation and repair are the foundation of longevity 02:15 — Introducing Bettina: from international journalist to first-time mom at 44 to breast cancer survivor to 12 years biologically younger 04:00 — Can we actually reverse biological age in our 50s and 60s?

What if much of the pain, stiffness, and physical decline we associate with aging is not inevitable? In this episode of The Aging Well Podcast, Dr. Jeff Armstrong's guest is posture expert and author Esther Gokhale, founder of the Gokhale Method and author of 8 Steps to a Pain-Free Back. Drawing from decades of research into traditional cultures where older adults remain active, mobile, and largely free from chronic back pain, Esther explains how posture shapes everything from spinal health and balance to independence and longevity.Together, they explore why modern movement habits may be accelerating physical decline, how posture affects fall risk and joint health, and whether structural changes in the body are possible later in life. Esther also shares practical insights listeners can begin applying immediately to move with greater comfort, resilience, and confidence as they age.Learn more at https://gokhalemethod.com/Please, support The Aging Well Podcast by hitting the ‘like' button, subscribing/following the podcast, sharing with a friend, and….Tip Jar!

What if the way you're aging has more to do with your metabolic health than your age itself? In this episode of Optimal Metabolism, I sit down with longevity physician Dr. Jennifer Timmons to discuss the powerful connection between insulin resistance, hormone health, disease prevention, and aging well. Dr. Timmons shares how her experience in traditional primary care led her to pursue advanced training in functional medicine, precision medicine, and longevity medicine. Together, we discuss what it really means to optimize health as we age, why insulin resistance accelerates many age-related conditions, and how women can navigate menopause with a long-term health strategy in mind. We also explore the growing interest in peptide therapies, where they may fit into a comprehensive health plan, and the foundational lifestyle habits that matter far more than the latest longevity trends. If you're interested in protecting your metabolic health, maintaining vitality as you age, and increasing your healthspan—not just your lifespan—this episode is for you. WHAT WE DISCUSSED: Why insulin resistance may accelerate the aging process The difference between lifespan and healthspan Menopause as a long-term metabolic and cardiovascular transition The role of muscle mass in healthy aging How longevity medicine differs from traditional healthcare Preventive testing and early disease detection Peptide therapies: benefits, limitations, and considerations Common mistakes people make when pursuing longevity Why consistency often beats biohacking Practical steps women can take today to age well FOR MORE INFORMATION FROM DR.

What does it mean to enter the final third of life with intention? In this reflective episode, Gem shares about a personal season of reset as she approaches sixty.
